Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity
Analysis, 2018-2026
Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) are active constituents used in the manufacturing of
pharmaceutical formulations and have a pharmacological and therapeutic effects on the body.
API constitutes the main ingredient, which helps cure the disease or disorder. APIs provide
health benefits and are used in disease diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. APIs cannot be
used in the raw form because it is the crude form of drug, which will not meet the appropriate
pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics parameters. APIs are thus combined with the suitable
excipients which are pharmacologically and therapeutically inactive but enhance its stability and
activities.

Any drug is composed of two components, the first one is the active pharmaceutical ingredient,
which is the central ingredient of the drug and the second is an excipient. Certain drugs such
as combination therapies, have numerous active ingredients, which treat different symptoms or
act in different ways. Manufacturers use different standards to determine the strength of an API.
However, the standard differs from one brand to another, as per the company choice. The
largest active pharmaceutical ingredients production companies are located in Asia, and India
and china have the highest growth for API production.
Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to boost the active pharmaceutical
ingredients market over the forecast period
According to World Health Organization (WHO), mortality and global health estimates of 2015,
Ischaemic heart disease, stroke, chronic obstructive lung disease, and lower respiratory
infections have been the cause for maximum number of deaths during the past decade. Diabetes
caused 1.6 million (2.8%) deaths in 2015, from 1.0 million (1.8%) deaths in 2000. Deaths due
to dementias doubled between 2000 and 2015, making it the 7th leading cause of global deaths
in 2015. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to increase the demand for
drugs, in turn fueling the active pharmaceutical ingredients market in the near future.
